Magdeburg (dpa / sa) - A few hours before the new Corona rules come into force, Saxony-Anhalt's state government decided on them in a new regulation.

This means that from Monday onwards, significantly relaxed contact rules apply, as the State Chancellery announced on Sunday evening in Magdeburg.

The members of one household may meet a maximum of five people from a second household;

Children under the age of 14 are not counted.

This means that Saxony-Anhalt goes beyond the agreement between the federal and state governments, according to which a total of two households with a maximum of five people should meet.

In addition, from Monday onwards, retailers can again advise small groups of customers in their stores if they book an appointment in advance by phone or online.

Cosmetics, nail, massage, piercing and tattoo studios can also reopen from Monday under these conditions.

There is a mask requirement for all involved and customers have to leave their contact details again.

Museums, libraries and archives are also allowed to open to visitors if they have obtained tickets or an appointment in advance.

At the same time, club sport can start up again: for children and young people up to the age of 18, training with up to 20 participants is permitted outdoors, for adults it can be five, including trainers.

The same person limit applies to rehab sports.

The ordinance will initially apply until March 28th.

The relaxations apply nationwide - also in the three districts which, according to the overview by the Robert Koch Institute, with more than 100 corona cases per 100,000 inhabitants and week, actually have too high an infection rate.
